【答案解析】China is a country undergoing profound changes. Our ancestors told us that as heaven maintains vigor through movement, a gentleman should constantly strive for self-perfection. And that if one can make things better for one day, he should make them better every day. Being faced with fierce international competition, this is like sailing against the current. One either forges ahead or falls behind. Reform which was first forced upon us by problems goes deeper in addressing the problems. We know keenly that reform and opening up is an ongoing process that we will never stop. China"s reform has entered a deep water zone, where problems crying to be resolved are all difficult ones. We need the courage to move the reform forward; to use a Chinese saying we must get ready to go to the monutain, being fully aware there might be tigers to encounter. The principle we have laid down for reform is to act with courage while moving forward with steady steps. As we say in China, he who wants to accomplish a bigger and difficult undertaking, he should start with easier things first and make sure that all details are attended to. With the deepening of reform, China will continue to undergo profound changes. I believe that our efforts of deepening reform comprehensively will not only provide strong momentum for China"s modernization drive, but also bring new development opportunities to the world. To observe and understand China properly, one needs to bear in mind both China"s past and present and draw reference both China"s accomplishments and Chinese way of thinking. The 5,000 year long Chinese civilization, the 170-year struggle by the Chinese people since modern times, the 90-year-plus journey of the Communist Party of China, the 60-year-plus development of the People"s Republic of China, and 30-year-plus reform and opening-up, should all be taken into account. They each make an integral part of China"s history and none should be taken out of historical context. One can hardly understand China well without a proper understanding of China"s history, culture, Chinese way of thinking, and the profound changes taking place in China today.
